Can chickens lay eggs that are too big for them? How do you know what size eggs they are supposed to lay?
Can adults eat grower feed?

One is from a leghorn and the other one is brown egg and I have several brown egg layers so ??? They are sitting in a large egg container
Some chickens certainly can. Normally breeders select the hens that hatched from the larger eggs if they are breeding for that.
Man, that's a really huge egg...I've only had one chicken ever lay an egg that big in all the time I've had chickens. I think you're just getting double yolkers
There is a weight for each size medium large x large jumbo, but can’t tell you what they are
I go by sight and how big I remember them when I used to buy them

Yea, I used to know the sizes, I'll have to restudy it
Have had them this big before and they haven’t had a double yolk
Real neat, I'd like to breed for egg size sometime. At the moment I breed for breed appearance
I bought 5chicks in 2014 and my chicken math doesn’t seem to know when to quit 
So I just collect the eggs and give to family and friends and sell a few but I may have to set up a stand because I got 26 today
